A Captain Planet Action Figure from Captain Planet and the Planeteers
I feel like I won the Thrift Toy Lottery at the Bargain House of Fleas Flea Market this weekend. I found this ancient relic from my childhood years, a Captain Planet Action Figure, for 50 cents.
I also visited with the usual toy vendor. (He gave me a toy last week, I wrote about it Here.) This time he had a huge haul of star wars toys and a friend with him who specialized in G.I Joe toys. Apparently this guy makes his living buying and reselling toys, waking up early to check Ebay for interesting new toys and deals. I wish I could have that much geekish dedication.
I admire people who's fundamental likes and dislikes haven't changed since childhood- they stay true to themselves. Hardcore toy collectors definitely fall into that category.
Here's a shot of an impressive Star Wars toy collection, some of these are from the 80s and still in their original packaging.
Tonight I'll continue to work with these toys, and perhaps play with them, just a little bit...
In each photo I was still looking for any sign of Strawberry Shortcake. It's truly amazing how a single toy can leave such in impression in your mind and in a way your heart. My collection is packed away and I can't wait to find a house just to display them properly.
